1969 Chevrolet Yenko Camaro - $258k

The Yenko Camaro remains one of the quickest and most collectible of all American supercars with just 201 built for 1969.

In addition to the COPO 9561 L72 427/425 HP big-block engine, this legend was also produced with the COPO 9737 (Sports Car Conversion) package including a 13/16-inch front stabilizer bar, 15x7 Rally wheels, E70x15 tires and a 140 MPH speedometer. Just six exterior colors were available and this car is one of 29 Daytona Yellow cars produced with a 4-speed manual transmission.
Restored in 1996 by Joe and Paul Sievers of Vincennes, Indiana, this 1969 Chevrolet Yenko Camaro is accompanied by a COPO Connection Certificate and a copy of the Yenko dealer invoice.
The monster iron-block and head, solid-lifter L72 427 was pegged at 425 bhp but Yenko rated it a more-realistic 450. The package added about $800 to a base coupe, including $490 for the engine.
This example made $258k in 2019.
